Renault 1181-4 (S) or Schlüter Compact 1250 TV6/LS?

Which should you choose?

The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 1181-4 (S) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Compact 1250 TV6/LS has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.

Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “similar machines”. Measured figures are compared only with measured, claimed only with claimed, at the same test condition; differences within each figure’s tolerance are not called.

What does this mean in plain words?

  • The Schlüter Compact 1250 TV6/LS is newer: production began 8 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
  • Even on weight (both unladen weight, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
  • Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
  • Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
  • Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the 1181-4 (S) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Compact 1250 TV6/LS has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
